ticking clocks (5/?)

Alfred's so close, more than close, his breath ragged, his body vibrating so hard his pleasure is fracturing; and Arthur stops. He unhooks Alfred's leg and withdraws his fingers. Alfred moans in protest-but then Arthur pulls Alfred up to him and holds him close as he reaches behind to stroke inside Alfred again. Only a few strokes and Alfred is coming, shuddering and crying out. Arthur muffles him with a kiss. He knows Alfred is too far gone to kiss back so he only puts his mouth over Alfred's to swallow his sounds, his orgasm-and then Alfred's tongue licks at Arthur's. He turns his head, breathless for a moment as he rests against Arthur, still straddling his lap. Arthur's fingers slip from Alfred's arse and his palm comes to rest in the small of Alfred's back. Alfred shudders again, small, quiet.
Arthur's hand slows and stills on Alfred's cock. Their hands are filled with Alfred's come; the come that slid through Arthur's fingers was caught by Alfred's. Alfred releases Arthur's hand now, careful to hold his come-coated fingers away from Arthur as he uses his other hand to bring Arthur's to his mouth so he can lick Arthur's fingers clean. Then he smiles, tongue flicking out to swipe the remnants from his own mouth.
Arthur smiles back, tries to stifle a yawn, doesn't entirely succeed. Alfred laughs. "It's okay, I know you must be wiped, old man." Before Arthur can protest either the appellation or the sentiment, Alfred says, "I think I'll have a shower. Call me when you're up, okay?"
"Alfred," Arthur says. Don't go. "You don't-do you want to shower here?" Arthur asks.
"Yeah, okay," Alfred says, his tone casual, his smile anything but.
They get to their feet, and Alfred's off to the shower before Arthur can even kiss him.
Arthur hasn't even really kissed Alfred yet, he realizes, and he wants to; he wants to really kiss Alfred. He takes off the rest of his clothing as he hears the water start, goes to the bed, and lies down to wait for Alfred.

That is genuinely a relief to hear. I sort of have this mapped out in my head but I'm not sure if I'm throwing too much at them (learning how to be together in private AND deciding whether or not to be together in public). So I'm thinking that over--and in any event, I'll do my best not to let you down! Thank you for reading.

Sequel to one of my favourite USUK fics, really? I think I love you, authornon <3
Oh, these two ;A; Even if they're together now, there's so much unsaid, it hurts. And I wish I could say something more to this, cause it's wonderful, but I'm still wibbling in my bed, thinking I must be dreaming.

Thanks so much, Anon! *blushes and grins* I'm really happy to read your comments because that's how I feel about them (so much unsaid between them), but I didn't know if that would be interesting or if it was preferable to leave them at that first breakthrough at the end of "Amsterdam." So I feel reassured now.

Ohhh, a sequel to my favorite. I have the feeling these two are going to make me terribly sad before this is finished, but I love it too much to not follow!

Ah, it's so tempting to spill what I have planned for them! But it's better to focus on writing it instead of telling you about it, right? Thanks so much for reading. ♥

:D Ahhhh 'anon' I haven't even finished the first part yet (sorry have to go soon) and I can tell we're in for a good ride. ♥ Thanks for writing more! :D
...will the other sequels still see the light of day, though?

I know, I'm...not very good at being anon here at the moment, am I. *looks suitably sheepish* Thank you for reading! ♥
Oh, yes! At least one sequel will happen, for I have been promised art and as you may or may not know, I am an absolute and utter whore for fanart. Also, there are two storyverses I really enjoy playing in and one sequel that is pretty much written and just needs to be typed/polished, if only I can find the headspace for it again.
Take the above with a grain of salt, for although I am genuine in my intentions, my follow-through or lack thereof sometimes turns me into quite the liar... orz

A sequel?! Of course I don't mind, dear lord. I am most definitely delighted to see any of your fills. Plus a sequel for a fic this good, its like a giant icing on top of a cake ♥

I'll die if this ends sadly. I mean it.
I'd also like to point out that I'm the same as the other repliers; Amsterdam was easily the best USUK fic I have ever read and will always, always be my favorite. Baw, you're so amazing. Stalking this like woah.

...Is it because I said I might be ruining it? The following might give something away, so I'm putting it in white font with the option to highlight and read, or not.
Oh man, that's--all I meant was that I was returning them to a struggle after their breakthrough at the end of Amsterdam. Ruining the ending of that story, not ruining them. I will do bittersweet and I will do angst with hope of a future resolution, but this Anon does not do bleak or unhappy endings. So they might not end up with a perfect happy ending, but it will not be sad. I promise.
Anyhow, thank you so much for your encouraging comments! The next part stopped making sense part-way through so I'm rethinking it at the moment, but there should be more by the weekend.

Those two are so awkward turtle, it's almost heartbreaking, and yet I love it.
